The Federal Administrative Court (FAC), based in St. Gallen, hears appeals against decisions made by federal authorities. It rules as the final instance in most cases; among the rulings subject to appeal to the Federal Supreme Court, only a minority are challenged. The credibility enjoyed by the FAC’s case law is primarily due to excellent work quality and appropriate procedure duration. To this end, the court offers its employees modern workstations, flexible hours and a trilingual environment.
